1922 Washington Post -- "Arctic Ocean Getting Warm; Seals Va

Inside the Beltway
August 14, 2007
John McCaslin - Before Gore

D.C. resident John Lockwood was conducting research at the Library of
Congress and came across an intriguing Page 2 headline in the Nov. 2, 1922
edition of The Washington Post: "Arctic Ocean Getting Warm; Seals Vanish and
Icebergs Melt."

The 1922 article, obtained by Inside the Beltway, goes on to mention "great
masses of ice have now been replaced by moraines of earth and stones," and
"at many points well-known glaciers have entirely disappeared."

"This was one of several such articles I have found at the Library of
Congress for the 1920s and 1930s," says Mr. Lockwood. "I had read of the
just-released NASA estimates, that four of the 10 hottest years in the U.S.
were actually in the 1930s, with 1934 the hottest of all."

I haven't yet found this on urbanlegends but I think there is something very wrong with this story. I'm still researching but it's possible that Washington Post did not have such a story on that particular date.
